Zimbabwe's location
Zimbabwe, (officially the Republic of Zimbabwe and formerly Southern Rhodesia. the Zimbabwe is a landlocked country located in the southern part of the continent of Africa, between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers. It is bordered by South Africa to the south, Botswana to the southwest, Zambia to the northwest and Mozambique to the east.

Languages
The official language of Zimbabwe is English, however the majority of the population speaks Shona; the native language of the Shona people, a Bantu language. Its other native language, Sindebele, is spoken by the Matabele people.

The government and the economy
Today, Zimbabwe is ruled by President Robert Mugabe, who has been accused by rights groups, such as Amnesty International, of violations of human rights. Zimbabwe is currently experiencing a hard currency shortage, which has led to hyperinflation and chronic shortages in imported fuel and consumer goods. President Mugabe's critics blame his program of land reform. However, Mugabe claims that massive financial isolation through American, British, and European Union legislation such as the Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act of 2001 is the actual cause of hyperinflation. Under ZDERA, the United States is prohibited from supporting any efforts by the International Monetary Fund and other financial institutions to extend loans, credit or debt cancellation to the Zimbabwean government.

=Reflection on wiki use=

Wiki is an intersting tool that gives student an apportunity to build their proper "website". Through this assignment, I learn how to build a simple website with different webpages using simple tools that allow different manipulation, such as formatting text, inserting pictures, embeding external links ... In addition to the information it contains, wiki allow members to enter in discussions that enhances the communication process. Building wiki is time consuming, However, it was fun!!
